GWX spring update idea

[WilhelmSchulz.]

The Idea is port the merchants from SHIV into SHIII. Since after looking carefully many where European built(being bought by Japan after European countries where done with them).

Here is the first that I know of. :yep:

I can tell you now that no units from SHIV will be in GWX 1.04, mainly for legal/ethical reasons, sorry - :-?

Wilhelm, first off make sure it's ok to do so. Ask Ubi first, no one needs to have a lawsuit thrown at them for taking things from SH4 and changing them so they work in SH3. It could be a big NO NO. ;)

Hi!

I suspect the problem is not so much that you are not making money, but that Ubisoft may not make money on SH4 if people keep playing SH3 using SH4 objects, rather than buying SH4.

personally i think the biggest factors GWX updates should offer

1. AI torpedos which would be launchable from surfaced AI and Submerged AI subs and torpedo boats and perhaps even planes. (with visible wakes of course)

2. Lifeboats that spawn when a ship is sinking.

3. More historical accuracy to the military presence on the US. East Coast in January - July 1942. Most accounts i have read indicated that during the first few months of 1942 U-boats operated on the US East coast almost without ever being challenged. If i recall from the text i have read there were only a hand full... literally like 6 ASW equipped coast guard cutters and perhaps a few planes available to protect the entire east coast from new york to miami. But it seems in GWX when i patrol the areas of the US East Coast almost all i run into is PT boats, Flower corvettes and Clemsons! when historically, there were few threats to the U-boats in early 42 on the US east coast and most skippers only encountered pleasure boats and merchant ships.

thats it as far as im concerned - solve those three difficult issues and there never needs to be another sub sim! hahaha
